Staying Calm On Your Big Day

Weddings are beautiful, exciting, fun, expensive, overwhelming, and stressful. So how does a bride-to-be keep her sanity on the biggest day of her life? Here are some tips that will help you relax and keep things in perspective on your big day.

Plan Ahead

The first step in staying calm on your wedding day begins the day after he slips the diamond on your finger. Even though the wedding day may be many months away, planning ahead today will keep you on track tomorrow. Whether you are going to hire a wedding planner or youíre going to take care of the details yourself, managing the event is ultimately your job.

Okay, I know it sounds like this is more work than you signed up for. But a wedding is nothing more than one huge project. Even small weddings involve millions of little details that you will need to manage and record. Does your caterer know that most of the bridal party is vegetarian? Does your florist know that the pink roses are supposed to match the pink fabric of the bridesmaid’s dresses? Have you considered where you’re going to hold your garden wedding if it rains?

Take Advice

When you’re planning your wedding, thousands of decisions need to made. For the most part, those decisions will be your responsibility. Rather than getting overwhelmed by the sheer volume of decisions and information available, listen to what the professionals have to say. If you take the time to listen you will get great suggestions from the florist, caterer, dressmaker and other professionals that will help you save money, get good deals, and create the perfect wedding day.

Delegate

Whether it’s after your fifteenth argument with the caterer about what exactly constitutes a vegetarian meal, or when your make-up artist tells you that she will be in Alaska on your wedding day, there comes a time when every bride-to-be needs to ask for help. Quite simply, this is when your friends and family will be invaluable. This is also why you have a maid of honor. She’s not just there to stand beside you at the alter; she’s there to help her friend. However, the best person to ask for help is actually your future mother-in-law. It is the perfect chance to build a solid relationship with your husband-to-be’s mother, rather than the more traditionally rocky one.

Enjoy Your Day

For as long as you’ve been organizing your wedding, you’ve been planning to introduce your best friend and your company accountant. You expected them to hit it off, but then you notice that he’s dancing with one of your husband’s cousins and your best friend is sitting by herself at the bar. That’s the time to say c’est la vie. You can’t control everything, but this is something that a lot of brides forget. You’ve been in control mode for months, ordering around every merchant in town and it can be difficult to let go. But the biggest day of your life is not time to spend complaining that everyone won’t do what you say. So just relax and spend the time dancing with your new husband. You’ve put a lot of work into making the day perfect, now is the time to enjoy it.
